Hope

Like a lantern in the night sky that on a zephyr floats;
In the empyrean garden, I let my hopes float too.
The sylvan charms of life, coax my surrender
But, I nurture a dream; I aspire to be.

Buoyed by the melody that the gentle breeze sings,
My marauding vision seeks, minstrel like.
I let the vision roam free, let it rise higher on hope
For, I nurture a wish; I aim to do.

About Sonal Singh

An author, storyteller, and full-time observer of life’s glorious absurdities. I write humour-laced stories where chaos wears fluffy fur, emotions arrive uninvited, and middle-class Indian households become ecosystems of drama, love, and unsolicited advice. Armed with sarcasm, caffeine, and alarming emotional attachment to stray creatures, I believe compassion is less of a virtue and more of a lifestyle disorder. One that I embrace. When I’m not writing, I’m usually busy running a full-time HR consultancy business, rescuing animals, or trying to maintain dignity while being emotionally manipulated by my pets. Through my literary work, I try to blend humour with heart, celebrating the messy coexistence of humans and non-humans in modern urban India.
